‘Ride Up, Walk Down’

A guide to walks by bus from New Mills

Do you like to walk in the hills but dislike all the uphill bits ? Would you like to walk from A to B but can't because you had to leave the car at A ?

If so, here is a guide giving you the bus and train information, the start point and some ideas for the route. It gives 20 linear walks ranging from gentle downhill strolls back to New Mills, to sections of the Pennine Way. All start from high ground by bus routes from New Mills

There is a big choice of buses on Sundays and many running throughout the year all through the week.
